New Beginnings

I've decided to turn my old blog into a place to post photos, videos, and short stories of my dogs among other things. I never did have a lot to post previously but I think it's because I was at a point in my life where everything was "bland". So heres to new beginnings and hopefully I'll start sharing my thoughts more often! :)

Once again I've managed to skip most of my classes this semester. I'm not proud of it...for some reason I stop going to class half way through the semester. Of course there are always reasons...they vary by semester...but by now you think I would have learned my lesson? Yesterday I finally worked up the courage to email my English professor and beg him to help me pass his class. He asked me if I could meet him today at noon...he said he could: "use my help". So I thought to myself wtf? this is pretty sketch but I'm rather desperate...if I fail this class...this very easy class it will be the end of my career at UCONN. So meanwhile I worried all night and morning that he might make me answer questions regarding the material I never read. I pondered what he could have possible meant by "I could use your help". It turns out he just wanted me to alphabetize the classes hw's. While I was organizing the papers we discussed our personal addictions...he asked me if I had a cigarette on me to which I replied no...then he asked me if I smoked pot...and I again had to say no... I'm a bus driver. So in an effort to save myself I said... but I'm addicted to coffee! And he gave me this great idea!! He said: "On days like today coffee should come in higher dosages...the coffee machine should have a light sensor that adjusts caffeine levels based on the amount of sunlight." This is why I wanna be an engineer.

"Now the systems we have placed
To protect ourselves are hard to erase
And the egos that we bring
Are the guarded walls that have brought us this far

And it's all I know
That addictions don't like to let you go
It's killing me to see you
Slipping away"

Knowledge is Power

I've recently acquired a lengthy database of knowledge bearing sources for Dummies. I am thrilled to begin learning everything I never knew I wanted to know. :-) and I do want to know everything so this is why I will read "The Harvard Medical School's Guide to Achieving Optimal Memory" before getting too far into the 543 other titles I now possess.
Last Saturday during work I was reading a volume titled "How To Sleep Less and Have More Energy Than You Ever Had Before". I've yet to decide whether this book is propaganda but it argues that you can decrease the amount of sleep time required if the quality of your sleep time is increased. This sounds like the next best thing since the fountain of youth!!

My kooky's!

Stuff and...stuff

So nothing ever seems interesting enough to post...or I decide that it's too scandalous and might cause an uproar if I post it...but I feel like writing...my calculus teacher writes my class entire emails without using any punctuation but ellipses...it's really quite fascinating...I kno he's in math not english...but you'd think a PHD would know how to write...is it annoying you yet...I like ellipses but this just seems a bit obnoxious...this is my first blog post from my palm pre....

Well it's the end of my third week of classes and I'm beginning to experience that all too familiar overwhelmed feeling I normally get when deadlines draw near. I shut down to a hibernated state, get depressed, and fail at life in general. I'm trying very hard to use good judgment and not be overly dramatic but it seems that it only takes one bad day to ruin a whole semester. I just have to keep reminding myself of the "do it now, not later" rule to prevent procrastination. errrgh!

So it just seems to be that time again, time for me to write something interesting. Something spontaneous...something intriguing! Unfortunately I don't have adequate material for such.
Instead I'll post what I've already written since it encompasses my past few weeks.

Professor ,
I'm writing you because during Summer Session 2 I took Introduction to Computing with Therese S.
I had such a great experience in her class that I wanted to express my appreciation of her. She truly cares about her students and cultivates a stimulating learning environment. When I had trouble with some of the topics and she went well out of her way and spent over 6 hours tutoring me outside of class. I'd have to say that it is one of the best experiences I've had with a class at UCONN.
Sincerely,
J. M. Lirot

coffee coffee coffee!

This is a post about randomness, not a random post... I have a love hate relationship with coffee. On one hand it makes me happy...on the other i hate to rely on it. but really is it such a big deal? I can rely on coffee can't I? It makes me soooooooo happy!!!
This weekend was somewhat fun. Friday I got out of work early so I could relax a bit. I tanned, went to coyote flaco(where I consumed one margarita and was super drunk) and then went to the drive-in. We saw District 9 and The Ugly Truth. Neither particularly impressed me.
Saturday I went to the food and wine festival at mystic seaport. It didn't particularly impress me either. When we got home we had a campfire and smores. Been wanting to do that for a while. It was just alright.
Today I woke up depressed for no reason. Then I did various things for a few hours...skipped my grandpas bday party because I didn't feel well.
I've got to snap out of this jhbiukj.
time just hates me. motivation evades me.

Luck or no luck?

So last week I was driving to work/school when I noticed a grouping of black crows in the middle of the road (right smack in front of me), vanish just before I was about to ram into them...and I wondered...is this a bad omen? Are black crows bad luck? Does anybody out there know? Maybe I should google it?
As I was already having a bad week I just couldn't permit myself to believe in such sillyness. Especially since I wasn't sure if black crows really counted in the bad luck superstitions of broken mirrors, ladders, blacks cats etc... So I relinquished my fears and carried on with my horrible, terrible, awful, horrendous week.

I'm not gonna lie...My weekend was pretty terrible too.

Today at approximately 620 AM EST there were black crows in the road again. Now keep in mind at that time of day I'm still pretty sleepy and when I'm sleepy I am paranoid. It goes hand in hand. I thought to myself: "Great not this again! All I need is more bad luck!" and just when I thought it was over, not even 2 minutes later, a black cat crosses right in front of me turning to glare at me with his intimidating golden eyes.
Are there rules of bad luck? Like if it happens within minutes the bad luck cancels out as if you were multiplying negative numbers? I really hope so! otherwise I've got a lot of bad luck to deal with...and if you have bad luck to begin with than how do you ever get rid of it because technically if you have bad luck things could just keep happening to continue your bad luck because you already have it. What's a sign of good luck? I need something like that to counteract it pronto. You'll find me in the fields on my hands and knees groping for 4 leaf clovers in the near future. Any suggestions for other good luck I can acquire?
